  1. The angle of elevation of a tower from a distance 50 m from its foot is 30°. The height of the tower is :
    1. 50 √3 m
    2. 50 m
      3
    3. 75 √3 m
    4. 75 m
      3
Correct Option: B

Let us draw the figure from the given question.
Let AB = Tower = h m
GIven :- BC = 50 m
∠ACB = 30°

In ΔACB , ∴ tan 30° = AB
BC

1 = AB AB = 50 m
3503
The height of the tower is 50/√3 m .
